Date: March 17, 2008 3:10 PM
Reprinted From The Buffalo Challenger Newspaper

Professor Griff Will Keynote the Morningstar Promotion's "Freedom Legacy Film Festival", Friday and Saturday March 21 and 22 at the Screening room in Northtown Plaza, 3131 Sheridan Drive from 6-10 p.m.

The Following idependent film-makers from the Buffalo area will be featured: Doug Ruffin, Jr. and Karima Amin, ("Prisoners are People Too"), Kameron Wood ("The Waterfront: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow"), Peaze ("Ask God First Edutainment - Scarface for Life"), and Andrew Mitchell.

National speaker, community activist and one of the founding fathers of Public Enemy, Professor Griff and Steven Muhammad will be the guest speakers. This will be a weekend of entertainment, edutainment and change. On Saturday March 22 Professor Griff will conduct a session on "Hidden Messages In Movies."

The cost is $8 for the weekend and refreshments will be available for purchase. There also, will be give-aways throughout the weekend. Morningstar Promotions is part of the emergency response system that is needed for the high illiteracy rate, crime and negative images that runs rapid through our communities.

Sonseare Taggart, a concerned mother of four and many others who call her "Mom", realized the negative images that bombarded the youth around her daily. These images had a profound effect on the actions, speech and overall living of the children she mentored everyday. Taking action and analyzing what makes the youth thrive, she put together a promotional company that uplifts the youth and their talents.

Part of Morningstar Promotions is the Youth Authors and Poets divisions where children learn to write transcripts, learn to be self published, and learn about copywriting and marketing.

For more information about MorningStar Promotions contact: Sonseare at (716) 605-8681

Public Enemy’s Professor Griff comes to Buffalo next week to lecture at the Freedom Legacy Film Festival

It’s been a cruel winter for Professor Griff: Last month a gas leak caused his house and studio in Atlanta to burn down. He and his family lost everything—clothes and valuables, book and record collections, lectures, studio equipment, the artifacts and memorabilia collected over the course of a career that reaches back more than 20 years.

Griff’s most famous role in that long career is Minister of Communications for Public Enemy, the pioneering hip-hop revolutionaries fronted by his childhood friend, Chuck D. But Griff (born Richard Griffin) has made his own name in the world as well, separate from but always in pursuit of the same agenda that drove Public Enemy: empowering black people, countering media dissembling, fighting the powers that be.

Griff comes to town next Friday and Saturday to deliver a lecture and screen the documentary he helped to make last year, Turn Off Channel Zero, which deals with the African-American stereotypes that populate the dominant American media. The film is part of Morningstar Promotion’s Freedom Film Festival, which takes place March 21 & 22 at the Screening Room (in the Northtown Plaza, 3131 Sheridan Drive). Other filmmakers include Doug Ruffin, Jr. and Karima Amin of Prisoners Are People Too, Kameran Woods and Andrew P. Mitchell. (The program runs 6-10pm both days, and Griff’s lecture is on Saturday evening.



Turn Off Channel Zero Premiers in Buffalo

Professor Griff heads panel concerned with negative images in Hip-Hop

On Saturday September 22nd 2007, Morning Star Promotions joined forces with another phenomenal organization: Inspired Citizens of Buffalo (ICB) for the very first Morningstar Promotions independent film viewing. Professor Griff of Public Enemy was the invited guest and Keynote Speaker.

The Activist Film Turn Off Channel Zero was premiered. The Turn Off Channel Zero Movement is a joint effort of concerned activists, filmmakers, artists and media personalities who have come together to address Viacom’s negative portrayals of African-Americans. Their film takes specific aim at VH1, MTV and BET – all owned by Viacom. This film reaches deep into the black community and onto the front yard (literally) of one of the most powerful media moguls in the world - CBS and Viacom Chairman Sumner Redstone.

Along with the viewing of this film, Morningstar Promotions collaborated that weekend to help promote for ICB’s Annual Awards Ceremony which was held that Sunday September 23rd, 2007.
